Dont know why you didn't just buy the R style valance that fits the gti bumper instead of buying a whole new golf r rear bumper but looks good either wayIt's been a week since the last update. Been waiting on parts, mostly.
Recently finished up the floor. Painted on the top side.
Golf R Sway bar, nuts and bolts for the suspension, and centre driveshaft support mounts
HPA Turboback Quadpack Exhaust (un-resonated).
and finally, Golf R rear bumper
Back to work this week. A few mounts/brackets need to be fabricated for things like the angle drive and centre driveshaft, but it's all coming together nicely! Another challenge will be running vaccuum lines and a switch for the flapper on the exhuast. Since the Golf R was wired for it stock, this exhaust comes with one. Since GTIs dont come with that option, a switch will have to be wired to run this manually. One more thing that will make the car one of a kind
Instead of fitting the GTI with awd, why not get an R and modify it to look like a GTI? Seems like that would be much cheaper. I'm sure there are many GTI owners that would swap out their bumpers, skirts, etc. Plus give cash on top of it. And then you still have that sweet R interior.
Just a thought.
Why? He's doing something crazy and original. No one has done an awd swap on a mk6 that I know of. It's a truly one of a kind car instead of 1 out of 5000
Thank you. The classic "should have gotten an R" posts.. :fighting0030:
I admire you for going through with this, just subbed on vortex as well :thumbsup:
Nobody is hating. We all give him credit for this build. But the 99% of us just want to know why not just get the R since he is making one.
Why not just buy an R and then convert to fwd? No one has a fwd golf R, that would be unique.
hello,
possible to use golf mk6 TDI 4x4 to mk6 GTI awd swap?what is the difference tdi vs golf r?
thanks
Best idea!Mount uer engine in the back and go RWD xD
